    Beats me, I didn't do it. Then again, maybe it's kinda like a guy who's looking for a driver for his truck and he mentions it in the main forum instead of being content to follow the rules and keep his help wanted ad in the help wanted section.

    Ive got That "is it worth the risk" even worse than you... Our fleet it 100% super singles. Ive been really impressed with performamce in poor conditions... But not being able to get to a shop to have a flat repaired is a big downer. My old tires were just about to the point I was near refusing to run with them.

    I'm so close to needing new drive tires although I'm trying to run these as long as I can. I would like to stretch them so I can replace them just before the rain and snow flies.

    That's kinda what I'm hoping for too. I had a big bolt in the one about 40 or 50 thousand miles ago. I peeled some of what's left of the rubber off the center of two on opposite sides at the Peelot in Nogales.

    They're in the 6/32 or so range.

    But if one goes 100 miles from nowhere. Saved nothing.

    That's also why I kinda go middle of the road for pricing on drives. These are 25 months old now. That's a lot of BAD highway and chuck holes, and road hazards.

    Don't listen to that either. I forget the brand wrench's company is using. Might be some form of Bridgestone's, but they're reasonable and they are getting in the high 270K's with them.

    But SS freak me out. That just seems like an expensive proposition.
